It's this time of year that the party flood gates open and every where you turn there appears to be an excuse to get dressed up and get a glass of champagne in your hand. Whether it's galas, work parties, or just long over due dinners with friends, the last two months of the year mark a period during which one can let some steam off, have fun, and worry about whatever else when January 1st swings around.
Party style is one of our areas of expertise at Favourbrook, and frankly we love it because it allows us to combine the elegance and heritage of men's eveningwear with a joyous festive spirit. Some party occasions may of course require you to wear black tie, but others are much less formal, such as a beautiful dinner with friends in one of London's chicest restaurants. As such, there are a wide variety of style permutations in the genre of partywear, but they all have one thing in common - a cracking jacket or blazer. This is always the centrepiece of the look, driving the colour and texture of the complete ensemble. We've selected a variety of styles below that should definitely by in your consideration this season.
The Classic Dinner Jacket
A staple of eveningwear, the classic dinner jacket is an elegant choice for formal events and holiday gatherings alike. Its clean, structured silhouette and timeless appeal make it a versatile piece that pairs effortlessly with a classic tuxedo shirt and bow tie. Our dinner jackets come with silk grosgrain lapels for a very sophisticated finish and come in a variety of lapel styles. This jacket is ideal for those who appreciate refined simplicity and want an investment piece that will never go out of style.
The Velvet Single-Breasted Dinner Jacket
Exuding a festive richness, the velvet single-breasted dinner jacket is an ideal choice for party season. Velvet’s plush texture provides a welcome touch of luxury, while the single-breasted cut retains a sleek, streamlined look. Pair this with a crisp white shirt, silk bow tie, and black trousers for a refined yet warm aesthetic that’s perfect for the winter months. Available in rich hues such as olive, burgundy, sapphire blue and navy, it also works well worn with a more casual pair of trousers (even smart tapered jeans) and an open collar shirt without neck furniture for a more bohemian approach.
